Research on Wash Wave in Shallow Water Caused by Ship Moving at High Speed

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the theory of shallow-water wave, the theoretical model was established for calculating wash wave caused by ship moving at subcritical and supercritical speed. Wave elevation and pressure variation were obtained by numerical simulation, and their features were analyzed. A measuring system of wash wave and pressure variation was developed, and wave elevation and pressure variation induced by a towed ship model were measured. A good agreement existed between the calculated with experimental results.
